Mad Men Inspired Engagement Portraits

I have been excited to share these Mad Men inspired engagement portraits of Alison and Justin for a while now. (A&J, thanks for being patient with me!!)

These two will be getting married this October and I couldn’t be more excited for them!  Not only do I get to attend a wedding as a GUEST (woah!), but I know that theirs will be a unique, beautiful and sincere wedding with lots of funky dancing to boot (yeah!).  Alison & I met sometime around 2006 (what? 7 years ago!? time flies) and have become close friends since.  She and Justin are completely in love and that makes me so happy.  I had an amazing time photographing them and hope that I pulled off the Mad Men/ 1960’s look that they were going for.  They certainly looked the part!

My good friends, Brandi & Dave, allowed us to use their beautiful and unique mid century modern home for the portraits.  (Shout out to Brandi & Dave!!  Thank you!!)

Anyway, without further ado…the portraits:  (btw, what’s up with all my parenthesis in this post??!)

We eventually made our way to the Ranstead Room in Philly.  It’s a back alley/ speakeasy style bar…. and it’s awesome.  Cheers to the mixologist for my ginger infused glass of delciousness!
